Summary: parse a distribution name

Description: 

Parse::Distname is yet another distribution name parser. It works
almost the same as the CPAN::DistnameInfo manpage, but Parse::Distname takes
a different approach. It tries to extract a version part of a
distribution and treat the rest as a distribution name, contrary to
CPAN::DistnameInfo which tries to define a name part and treat
the rest as a version.

Because of this difference, when Parse::Distname parses a weird
distribution name such as "AUTHOR/v1.0.tar.gz", it says the name
is empty and the version is "v1.0", while CPAN::DistnameInfo
says the name is "v" and the version is "1.0". See test files
in this distribution if you need more details. As of this writing,
Parse::Distname returns a different result for about 200+
distributions among about 320000 BackPan distributions.
